Sony VGN-S480 Power Adapter
The Sony VGN-S480 power adapter is responsible for two things, charging the battery and to provide a source of power for the unit. When choosing a new AC adapter, selecting the Sony OEM charger will probably be the safest way to go. Because Sony has been known to use a single AC adapter that can be used on other units, be sure you choose the right one. If your decision is to purchase a different brand charger, make sure to check both the voltage and amperage output. A universal power adapter is a possibility but only if necessary.
Subtle cues of a failing power adapter
- Battery does not charge whatsoever
- Most Sony adapters get warm when plugged in for any length of time
- The laptop does not work using just the AC power adapter
